About this route

A short route through the hills of Charlevoix, from the Lac-Pikauba area past Notre-Dame-des-Monts and down toward the St. Lawrence. Climbs, descents and bends through forest and high farmland, with wide views over the Charlevoix crater. Few services on the way: start with a full tank. Québec drives on the right and posts speeds in km/h. The roads stay open in winter, but the riding season runs roughly from May to October: early and late in the year, expect frost heaves, gravel on the shoulders and wildlife at dusk.

Check road conditions and closures before you ride.
